i've seen others say before that kaji is the only eva character that actually has their shit together he knows exactly who he is and what he wants to do whereas every other main character has massive unresolved issues and that's why he had to be killed off
@@eggrollwilly1935He is surely better than everyone but not at 100%. He literally chose to die for knowledge he never even had the chance to share, he died knowing things instead of staying with Misato, he has not all his shit together, he lost some of it somewhere in his life
Kaji was literally the only adult in the show. By that I mean being capable of taking care of others in ways that they needed most. Misato, Shinji, Asuka, even Gendo.
Kaji is like the only adult character who basically has his shit together and treats Shinji like a person and not as a punching bag like the other characters have done.
In the italian dub scene kaji says:" Beh, Shinji, io non posso fare altro che stare qui ad annaffiare. Però, quanto a te, quanto a quel che non puoi far che tu, per te qualcosa da poter far dovrebbe esserci. Ma non ti costringerà nessuno, pensa da te stesso, decidi da te stesso che cosa tu stesso possa fare. Beh, che tu non abbia rammarichi." Poetry✨️
In the manga, they go to an abandoned subway station thing and tells his back story and makes him realize how theyre both cowards for trading his friends life for his own since toji acc dies in the manga. He makes him see his mistakes of running away from his problems and encourages him to do sm abt it this time (correct me if im wrong im jus saying dis on top of my head and what i remember from the manga)
Kaji was the best! Most mature and wholesome of all. If you ever played the first Girlfriend of Steel you'll see how remarking was him protecting Shinji and his date even from himself.
So, this scene is actually a huge meme in Italy. Brief history: Italy has three dubs for the entire series (EoE included). The first one is the only one available on DVD and is often regarded as a pretty well done dub overall. The third one is the Netflix redub, and while it's not bad people are kinda split on it. So, what about the second dub? Well, the third dub is actually the SECOND Netflix dub. The first Netflix dub was the second one, and it's BAD. So bad, in fact, that it was pulled from Netflix almost immediately and had to be replaced with the third one, which in fact used the same exact voice actors. I think that by now, it's actually completely lost media. Now, the problem with it was simply the script. The guy who directed the second dub is this idiot who's infamous in the anime community for his translation works because he sticks as closely as possible to the Japanese version. This includes GRAMMAR. So we get some extremely wonky sentences that no real human being would ever utter, coupled with some exceedingly unusual phrases and words for no discernible reason. This guy was in charge of about 95% of all Ghibli movies' dubs. So, when this scene came up in his dub, Kaji says something along the lines of "Well, Shinji, I can't do much besides standing here watering, but as for you, as for that which you can't do that you, for you there must be something you can do". Yeah.
thats really interesting. i never thought about how global eva is to the point where there are region specific memes about it lol. im american so i really only have an english speaker perspective on the show, so its been really fucking cool to see how much this scene has impacted people around the world. thanks for sharing man
Put it on 0.75x speed for the closest normal speed.
Yea I had to speed it up to get past copyright issues
Kaji was the only person thar understood shinji, he never treated him like a fool and encouraged him
This and the melon scene made Kaji my favorite character right behind shinji
@@ivannatinkle4910he got killed by the melons too.

I think Kaji was probably like Shinji when he was young, he did live through the second impact as a teenager.

My favourite scene from the anime. It really did inspire me to lift myself up when I hit a low point in my life.
Same it had a very profound effect on my life. Allowed me to realize that im the only one who can cause change in my own life

Nobody will force you, but we'll give you a lot of psychological pressure
Like always...

Anime kaji: do it by yourself
Manga kaji: flesh for flesh, u must suffer
In the italian dub scene kaji says:" Beh, Shinji, io non posso fare altro che stare qui ad annaffiare. Però, quanto a te, quanto a quel che non puoi far che tu, per te qualcosa da poter far dovrebbe esserci. Ma non ti costringerà nessuno, pensa da te stesso, decidi da te stesso che cosa tu stesso possa fare. Beh, che tu non abbia rammarichi." Poetry✨️
Speravo qualcuno lo dicesse lmao
Shinji then ran to the hospital to see if Asuka was still asleep.

this kind of scene happened like 3 times in the show i swear
i figured there was something in the way he speaks, and would you know it's the VA of spike spiegel
Thats amazing, now I wish steve blum voiced kaji in the english dub for the true Spiegel connection
